In praise of dads of all sorts - everywhere!
My dad can wrestle with giants,
eat like a horse,
swim like a fish . . . Can yours?
A brilliant, humorous look at fatherhood from a child's point of view, from this multi-award-winning author/illustrator.
Inspired when he one day found his father’s old dressing gown and felt instantly close to him, Browne wrote this lovingly illustrated tribute to a child’s pride in his father. It instantly appeals: most children see their parents as superheroes even when their feats of heroism are simple everyday tasks * Junior *
This is a perfect title for children to share with their dads. With a very minimal text and wonderful full page illustrations, this is a title that will warm the hearts of readers of all ages * Through the Looking Glass *
The pictures are extraordinary and unforgettable and celebrate dads in a way few books do * Independent *
For sheer illustrative wit, Anthony Browne is unsurpassed * The Times *
Delightfully simple but visually impish * Literary Review *
Anthony Browne is a sublime master of the visual pun * Independent on Sunday *
The Magritte of the pre-schoolers, Browne's illustrations are among the most distinctive and surreal of any children's artist. A beautiful tribute to a very special dad in a dressing gown * The Scotsman *
A celebration of all things "dad" from the quirky to the moving * Aberdeen Evening Express *
It's humorous and charming. Dads and kids alike will love it * Woman’s Own *
